Hydrant crash leads to boil advisory

Certain residents who live on Hickory Street and Green Street are under a boil advisory through noon on Sunday after a water main break and repair.

Public Works issued the advisory for drinking water Friday morning after working on a water main break due to someone hitting a fire hydrant in Kirksville.

Water was shut off for several hours and led to a 48-hour boil advisory period for citizens on Hickory Street from High to Franklin streets and on Green Street from Cottonwood to Buchanan streets. The advisory is through Sunday at 11:30 a.m.
